Pantothenic acid is a precursor of coenzyme A (CoA), an important cofactor and acyl group carrier in cells. One of the main functions for CoA is the formation of acetyl-CoA, support for cellular respiration and the metabolism of carbohydrates and acids through the Krebs cycle. Distribution studies indicate that tissues with the highest retention of pantothenic acid are the kidneys, pituitary gland, heart, muscle, liver and adrenal glands. Additionally, pantothenic acid is required for the synthesis of acids and membrane phospholipids, the amino acids leucine, arginine and methionine, and isoprenoid derivatives, including steroid hormones, vitamin A and vitamin D.* Cellular Energy: Pantothenic acid supports cellular energy production by promoting proper metabolism of carbohydrates and acids.* Nutrient Synthesis: Pantothenic acid helps the synthesis of vitamins, amino acids, and acids.* Pantothenic acid is a precursor of coenzyme A (CoA) which is essential for acid transport and acid met
